AUGUSTA, Ga. - In a week, two loaded guns have been found near a Richmond County school.

Friday, investigators saw a crowd gather outside The Academy of Richmond County after school.

When an officer approached the crowd a man ran. When deputies caught him, he had a loaded gun. School officials don't think the man was a student.

Last week, officers found a former student with a sawed off shotgun near the school.
